Jens... How do you prepare each new round of golf? Prior to each new tournament, do you actually create a UDF to test with or do you just use information you've found on the subject? I realize it wouldn't be fair to consider your scores, but how come you never participate (even after the fact?)
Early on I actually did participate. Unfortunately, I'm now time-challenged that I don't even have much time to code anymore. So, KiXgolf is my way to continue contributing to the KiXtart BBS. Besides, I enjoy leaning back and watch the battle unfold :-) More seriously, I don't consider it fair to participate in a competition if I'm the one setting the rules and challenges. As the umpire, I should be neutral.

I can understand the neutralility part...but I thought if you were actually writing a UDF to create your test suite, you could at least publish your score after the contest ends... but I guess that answers my other question too... you must base your tests/answers on research you've done.
At any rate, I enjoyed the last one (since it was easy enough for me to get my brain around it ) and I hope to have time (and the mental capacity) for your new one.
It depends on the challenge. For one of the next potential KiXgolfs, I'd have to write a validation routine to make sure the result's correct as there could be multiple ocrrect answers. I think for MOAN, I used a subnet mask generator to create the test suites.
